Yesterday, Donald Trump met with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov — the mastermind behind the DNC hacking operation — and Ambassador Sergey Kislyak, the guy Michael Flynn (and half of the White House staff) spoke to before the election. That in and of itself is cause for alarm, that it came the day after James Comey was fired is even more cause for alarm. That the White House press wasn’t allowed in to see it, but Russian photographers were is an even bigger deal.

Apparently, Trump was trying to punish the press for doing their job. It backfired.
